Whether Your Child Has Autism

In today’s episode of the My Opinion about…series, I will tackle what is Autism or how to find out if your child has autism.
Autism is one of those dreaded diagnoses and understandably so because what is known about autism is sketchy, confusing or alarming and further compounded by the fact that autism apparently has ‘no cure’.
When parents come into my clinic for a speech and language evaluation of their child experiencing a language delay, I can feel their anxiety about whether or not their child has autism.
When I don’t go out and diagnose their child with autism, they come out straight and ask, “so Jeremy doesn’t have autism?”
I can almost hear the sigh of relief.
While there are some ‘obvious’ signs of autism, it is usually not best practice to give a diagnosis of ‘autism’ after one evaluation because various factors could have informed whatever features/ characteristics the child displayed.
